A primitive maze chase with a killer on the loose, it's the simple terror of Halloween that lingers. You're a babysitter, fleeing the pixelated Michael Myers through a stark, single-screen house. The game's strength lies in its relentless, unavoidable threat: Myers is always coming, forcing you to make split-second decisions about where to run and when to hide, long before stealth became a genre staple.
